A RADIO MODULE INCLUDED IN A PRIMARY RADIO STATION TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a radio module which is included in a primary radio station of a mobile radio system. The primary radio station may be a base station of a mobile telephone system for instance, although it may also form part of a mobile services switching centre having integrated transmitter-receiver units.
BACKGROUND ART
A radio subsystem of a mobile radio system is generally comprised of one or more radio signal transceivers TRX, an antenna part which is common to several transceivers, and a control part. The transceivers include the radio technical units, such as modulator/demodulator, frequency synthesizer, amplifier units, while the control part includes those controlling and switching devices required to operate the transceivers, and to divert calls to/from the mobile services switching centre (MSC) of the system.
Those digital TDMA-systeras developed in recent times in Europe and North America also include units for channel coding (channel decoding) in conjunction with transmission and reception, and time-slot allocation (burst generators) and recovery of data from a given time-slot (symbol detector, possibly also equalizer) and speech coding and speech decoding units. In these digital systems, the aforesaid units are controlled by the control unit when transmitting and receiving signals on the basis of the- channels that have been allocated, among other things, meaning that both frequency and time slot allocation must be controlled in the transceiver units. For instance, the frequency synthesizer must
^^94/11958 2 PCT/S
be tuned to the correct receiving frequency. Furthermore, it is necessary to be able to control the burst generator and the symbol detector in the receiver so as to enable the signal burst intended for a given channel to be recovered from the time-slot determined.
The base station may contain several such transceiver units and one such given unit need not be allocated a given radio channel or other radio parameter (time-slot, frequency, power output, etc.), but can be controlled generally by the control unit to transmit/receive on all of the radio channels allocated to the base 10 station.
Each base station of a cellular system may be allocated a particular set of radio channels and a given radio coverage in a given cell or several sector cells. It is generally known to use a single antenna unit for a plurality of transceiver units within a base 15 station. The individual transmitter units may be connected to the common antenna via coaxial connections and a so-called filter combiner or hybrid combiner.
In other cases, a high linear amplifier intended for a plurality of carrier frequencies is used prior to delivering signals to the 20 antenna via a coaxial connection.
Although this enables the antenna construction of the base station to be simplified, it also results in unnecessary power consumption, since it is necessary to compensate for attenuation of the radio signal caused by the coaxial connection and the combiner 25 with greater power in the output amplifier of the transmitter part. In the other Case, which uses a high linear amplifier without a combiner, significant power losses are experienced not only in the coaxial connection but also in the amplifier. Furthermore, the use of a filter combiner, which has lower losses than a 30 hybrid combiner, has, instead, the disadvantage of not permitting any detsired frequency combination to be used in the transmitter, because the fillers must be designed to be selective for a given transmitter frequency.

94/11958 PCT/SE93/00831
The inclusion of transceiver modules in a radio base station has earlier been proposed; see for instance U.S. Patent 4,694,484. ) Each such module is assigned unique parameters with regard to its function in the radio system, depending on the location of these 5 transceivers and the antenna configuration used.
The radio system described in the aforesaid patent is an FDMA-) system in which a channel corresponds to a specific radio frequen cy. The system also includes a fixed antenna unit comprised of sector antennas each illuminating a cell, and associated combiners 10 (cavities 610-614, Figure 6). A number of such modules in a base station can be controlled by the base station controller so as to transmit/receive over certain radio channels and in accordance with those requirements demanded by the antenna unit in the base station. The module can be controlled so as to be operative for 15 both transmission/reception of radio calls, for instance, which is the most usual, or solely to receive and page radio signals. This known structure is able to reduce greatly the number of complicated connections between the different base station units, although the disadvantage of needing to adapt the individual 20 modules to the demands of the antenna unit still remains.
DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
The development of cellular land mobile radio systems in recent years has been influenced in arriving at the present invention. Older cellular radio systems of this kind generally comprise 25 larger cells, require high power outputs from the base stations, and have relatively few channels/base stations. The majority of the older systems are analog systems.
Present-day cellular radio systems and those systems developed in recent times are characterized by small and large cells (micro-30 cells, umbrella cells), lower power outputs, many channels and higher frequencies. The recent systems are also often digital systems with time-division multiplex access (TDMA).

An object of the present invention is to provides* faaro module for a base station of a mobile radio system.
By "present-day radio systems" is primarily meant the FDMA- and 5 TDMA-systems mentioned in the introduction. But the radio module according to the invention can also be applied on a radio system of so called CDMA-type in which the radio signals are modulated and transmitted/received within a broad frequency-band.
The properties of the proposed radio structure and the modules included therein enable the requirements placed on present-day 15 systems to be satisfied to a greater extent. Primarily, the need of combines and associated coaxial cables is eliminated. In those cases when combines are not used but a power consuming high-linear final amplifier Is used, the proposed modular structure enables the final amplifier to be made more simple and leaner in power. The inventive radio structure is particularly suitable in those cases 20 in which the antennas can be given small dimensions in systems which use very high frequencies (in the order of 1500 MHz).
The present specification describes and claims one embodiment of the radio module. Alternative embodiments of the radio module and radio base structure are described 25 and claimed in our New Zealand.Specification No. ^ST^O^'from' which the present specification is divided.

BEST MODES OF CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectioned view of an inventive radio module. The body of the actual module is comprised of a fixed profile 1 made of aluminium for instance and having an H-shaped cross-section (see Figure 2). Figure l also shows a longitudinal cross-section of the profile. In each of the thus formed longitudinally extending openings of the profile 1, there is attached or firmly clamped an antenna part 2 between the two side parts 12 and 13 of the profile 1 on one side thereof. The component part 3 of the transmitter-receiver units of the module is attached in a suitable manner to the other side of the profile 1 and along the web 11 of said profile. The component part 3 may be comprised of a flat, rectangular insulating plate, for instance a laminate on which blocks 33 and 34 containing the transceiver components are mounted. This is shown more clearly in Figure 4. There may also be provided a component block 32, which represents a duplex filter and is mounted on the plate 31. Provided at the lower end-part of
94/11958

the component part 3 is a cable connection 35 by means of which the transceiver units are connected to external units, such as the control unit. This connection is suitably effected with a coaxial cable.
The antenna part 2 is comprised of a fiberglass board 21 provided with metal configurations that form the antenna dipoles, as shown in Figure 3. The antenna board 21 is attached or firmly clamped between the two side parts 12 and 13 in some suitable manner. The space between the antenna board 21 and the web 11 may be filled 10 with a soft, insulating material. The board 21 is mounted so that the metal patterned surface faces inwards towards the web 11 of the module, as shown in Figures 1 and 2.
Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view of the radio module and shows the H-shaped profile 1 and also the antenna part 2 and the 15 component part 3 of the transceiver units in their assembled states.
Figure 3 illustrates the construction of the antenna part 2 in more detail. The antenna part has the form of a known stripline antenna which includes a conductive pattern as described above in 20 the form of a plurality of conductive plates 22-26 (five plates in the illustrated embodiment) which form the antenna dipoles and associated conductor layout 27. An electric connection 28 (see Figure 1) is provided at the upper part of the antenna board 21. The antenna plates 22-26 are connected to the duplex filter 32 by 25 means of an electric connection (naked wire) 4, via the electrical connection 28, and the duplex filter 32 is in turn connected to the transceiver units. The web 11 of the module may form the earth of the antenna unit and may also form the earth of the transceiver units 33 and 34.
When incoming radiation is received from a mobile station, for instance, electric voltages are induced in the plates 22-26 and the combined voltage (relative to the earth surface) is conducted from the plates through the electric contact 28, the electric connec-
786179

tion 4 and the duplex unit 32 to the receiver block 34. Conversely, the transmitter signals are conducted from the transmitter block 33 to the plates 22-26, via the naked wire 4, the electrical contact 28 and the duplex unit 32.
Figure 4 illustrates the front side of the component part 3 containing the transmitter units 33 and the receiver units 34. These components are known components and are mounted on a circuit board 31 and connected in a known manner to produce the desired, known transceiver functions and consequently form no part of the 10 present invention. An inventive radio module is characterized in that the antenna function, i.e. the antenna part 2, has been integrated with the transceiver functions, i.e. the component part 3, to form a single unit. In the embodiment illustrated in Figures 1-2, these units have been constructed on an H-shaped profile, 15 although it will be understood that the body 1 may have another profile and that the antenna and component parts can be attached or'firmly clamped in some other way. An essential feature is that a radio module will havo its own antenna part which is connected to its own component part for the transceiver units (in the 20 absence of a combiner) , said parts not being common to any other radio module in a base station, and that the modules can be placed close together in a structure, as described below.
Figure 5 is a block diagram of a typical embodiment of the transmitter units in the block 33 included in a radio module 25 according to the invention. All units in the module are in themselves known in the construction of a base station of a cellular mobile radio system.
Connected to the input of the transmitter block, said input being connected to the electric contact device 35 in Figure 1, is a unit 30 51 for timing recovery and distribution of those signals which arrive from the base station controller via the connection 36 in Figure 1 and which are intended to control the various units in the transmitter block according to Figure 5.

Thus, the unit 51 has a connection which leads control signals to a frequency synthesizer 53 which set or adjust the synthesizer to the radio frequency fl used for the radio module. A modulator block 52 includes a modulator which modulates the baseband signals to a desired form, for instance a 4piQAM-modulator in the illustrated case. Control signals which control the function of this modulator and other units are also obtained over the input B. The block 52 also includes an RF-modulator, i.e. a frequency modulator, which transforms the baseband modulated signals to the 10 desired radio frequency band. The chosen radio frequency fl is delivered to the RF-modulator from the frequency synthesizer 53, controlled by the unit 51.
Further, control signals are sent from the unit 51 to a level regulator 54 with the intention of being able to regulate the 15 level of the signals obtained from the RF-modulator in block 52 to the following final stage 55. The final stage 55 includes a power amplifier which delivers amplified radio signals having a given power output to the following antenna unit 2, via the connection 4 and the duplex filter 32 shown in Figure l.
One special feature of the transmitter unit 33 in an inventive radio module resides in the control of the frequency synthesizer 53 and the level regulator 54. When the module is included together with a plurality of other modules in an FDMA-system, the frequency synthesizer can be controlled in a desired manner, V5 although such that each radio module in the system has its own particular frequency, i.e. for an FDMA-system, and its own individual radio channel among a number of modules each having their own particularly selected radio channels. This will be described in more detail further on. Selective setting of the radio 30 frequency in known systems which include a combiner is prevented by the combiner.
Control signals to the level regulator 54 from the base station controller for instance, control the setting or adjustment of the level of the output signals from the modulator unit 52, so that
28617 9
k'O 94/11958 PCT/SE93/00831
these signals will be adapted to the antenna unit 2 subsequent to being amplified in the final stage 55. The final stage 55 includes a power amplifier (not shown), as in the case of known final stages. Since no losses are occurred by the presence of a combiner 5 or associated coaxial connection in the base station, there is no longer the same need for high amplification as in known designs.
When the radio system is a TDMA-system, certain additional units are included, among them the block 56 shown in broken lines in Figure 5, which contains a burst generator for distributing the 10 incoming baseband signals into given time-slots for each TDMA-frame.
Figure 6 illustrates an array of radio modules in a base station of a mobile radio system. The' illustrated array includes a total of 18 modules, of which nine modules M1-M9 are arranged in the 15 upper row and nine modules M10-M18 in the bottom row. All modules are mounted in a suitable manner and form the primary station (the base station) . A general condition, irrespective of the type of system involved (FDMA or TDMA) is that modules M1-M8 and M11-M18 transmit on their own individual frequency fl-f8 and fll-fl8 20 respectively and that no module is able to transmit on the same frequency as another module. The unit 34 is removed from each of these modules and the duplex filter 32 is replaced with a strap. In the case of an FDMA-system, each module M1-M8 and M11-M18 transmits on a given carrier frequency that is different from the 25 carrier frequency of each other module. The modules M9 and M10 are receiving modules and each one will thus include only one receiver amplifier according to Figure 1. The receiving modules M9 and M10 are able to receive radio signals from secondary radio units over several carrier frequencies f9 and flO respectively, although 30 these carrier frequencies are spaced from the carrier frequencies on which the modules M1-M8 and M11-M18 transmit by a given duplex distance (for instance, 45 MHz).
Frequency jumping or hop is used in the GSM-system, i.e. the value fl of the carrier frequency of a given transmitter on a given
286179
/11958 PCT/SE93/00831
occasion will hop to another value f2 on another given occasion.
When applied to the inventive module structure, the use of frequency hopping would mean that when the carrier frequency f 1 is used by the module Ml and the carrier frequency f2 is used by the module M2 on a given occasion and module Ml hops from fl to f2, it would then be necessary for the module Ml to hop at the same time to some other frequency that is not used by the structure. Frequency hopping can be effected from one time slot to another.
Those procedures that must be taken in order tc? ensure that the different modules M1-M18 will not disturb one another have not been shown in this Figure, but will be described in greater detail below with reference to Figure 9.
Figure 7 illustrates an array of radio modules M1-M9, M12-M20 similar to the Figure 6 array, with the exception that the Figure 7 array includes two further modules M10, Mil. These additional modules are included with the intention of achieving reception diversity, i.e. reception of radio signals from a given mobile radio at two mutually separate places in the base station. Diversity design of antennas and transceiver units is known to the art. Such designs include two antennas which are spaced mutually apart in the radio receiver. The radio receiver may then either have two separate signal processing paths for the recovery of transmitted information (speech or data) or may have a common signal path which includes a switch to each antenna.
In the diversity design illustrated in Figure 7, it is assumed that the modules M1-M9 and M12-M20 have both transmitter and receiver units and that the two modules M10 and Mil form only antenna modules. By way of example, it is assumed that only three standard modules Ml, M2 and M3 are disposed for diversity reception. The antenna module M10 is connected to one receiving path of the modules Ml, M2 and M3 by a coaxial connection S10, while the antenna module Mil is connected to the other receiving path of the modules Ml, M2 and M3 by a coaxial connection Sll. It is therewith possible to achieve diversity with two separate antenna pairs.
94/11958 PCT/S
This opposes what has earlier been said with regard to the construction and function of the different modules, but two pairs of modules, for instance Ml, M10 and Ml, Mil can, in this case, each be considered as a single receiving module having the same 5 radio parameters (frequency and time-slot), but where the antenna part is divided into two parts, each positioned at a different geographical location.
Figure 8 illustrates the diversity design of the three modules Ml, M2 and M3 with associated antenna modules M10, Mil in more detail.
Each of the antenna modules M10, Mil is comprised of an antenna A1 and A2 and a receiver distributor MD1 and MD2 respectively. The antennas will preferably have the construction shown in Figures l and 3 and each of the receiver distributors MD1, MD2 is comprised of a resistive network, optionally including an amplifier. The 15 antenna signal incoming from the antenna A1 in the module M10 for instance is divided into three generally equal signals, each corresponding to the antenna signal, and the three signals are passed to one receiving input of respective modules Ml, M2, M3. Similarly, the antenna signal incoming from the antenna A2 in the 20 module Mil is divided into three equal signals and the signals are passed to the other receiving input of the modules Ml, M2, M3. Each such module will preferably have separate signal processing units and can be constructed as disclosed in the U.S. Patent 4,868,890 for instance.
An analysis of the received signal is carried out in each module M1-M3, as described in the aforesaid U.S. patent and the best signal contribution is recovered from the two parallel receiving circuits for further signal processing (channel decoding, etc.).
As will be understood, each module can function as a fully 30 autonomous transmitter and receiver in which the own antenna is used both for transmitting and receiving signals. However, it is necessary in this case to provide a duplex filter between the antenna unit and the transmitter and receiver respectively in the
700831

12
module. This solution, however, does not provide the aforedescri-bed diversity effect.
Thus, the modules M1-M18 illustrated in Figures 6-8 can be combined selectively, provided that the requirement of different 5 carrier frequencies on mutually different modules is observed. Leakage between antenna elements in one module to another module, via radiation and earth currents from the antenna in one module to an adjacent module and capable of causing intermodulation, can be suppressed in the manner described below.
This suppression can be achieved with the aid of three mutually independent procedures capable of reducing leakage between two mutually adjacent modules, and therewith intermodulation, either together or individually.
Figure 9 illustrates an example of such suppression. The conduc-15 tive walls of the module profile earlier described with reference to Figure 1 are shown in the section S-S of the four modules M1-M4 shown in Figure 9. The two defining walls of two modules Ml and M2 can be short-circuited or choked by means of a sharp U-shaped conductive connection CI, and remaining modules can be short-20 circuited or choked in a similar manner. In this case, the connection CI shall be such that the part of connection that extends between the modules in their longitudinal direction shall have a distance d to the opposing defining surface that is equal to a quarter of a wavelength, i.e. d = A,/4 of the field transmitted 25 by the module. The short-circuit is transformed in this way to an infinitely great impedence for this wavelength and provides effective damping or attenuation of a horizontal polarized field.
The module transmits a periodic field whose frequency is equal to the frequency of the radio frequency used (this frequency being fl 30 for the module Ml). For instance, the distance d will equal 75 mm in the case of the GSM-system, which transmits and receives on
O94/11958
13
£00 I / 9
900 +/- 22.5 MHz. The distance between two mutually adjacent walls, i.e. the length of the connection part CI, is preferably much smaller than one-quarter wavelength.
Disturbances between two modules can also be eliminated by 5 providing a resistive and radio-frequency absorbent material between the modules, as illustrated by the broken line contour A in Figure 9.
Another method is to provide a circulator on the output of the transmitter element of each module, or to provide one or more 10 ferrite insulations in known manner.
The aforesaid methods of suppressing the influence of the radio field from one module to one or more mutually adjacent modules can be applied either individually or in combination. It is primarily the antenna unit that leaks radio fields to its neighbours. An 15 antenna unit has a natural leakage of 35-40 dB. A short-circuiting (choke) according to the above results in an attenuation of about 20 dB in the case of a horizontal polarized field. In the case of a vertical polarized field, the leakage is = 0. Resistive material provides an attenuation of 25-30 dB and a circulator provides an 20 attenuation of 20-25 dB, whereby an attenuation of 60-100 dB can be achieved, which provides acceptable insulation between two modules.
The aforedescribed radio base structure provides a flexibility which enables traffic capacity to be extended incrementally, while 25 also enabling the allocation of available resources, such as time, frequency and power output, to be effected without obstruction and without limitations in each individual module and in large unit assemblies consisting of several modules. The structure is general and can be implemented for different analog and digital radio 30 systems, i.e. for both FDMA, TDMA and CDMA systems. It is also independent of mobile radio standards, i.e. can be implemented for the Nordic Mobile Telephone System (NMT), the Northamerican
O94/11958
14
286179
PCT/S E93/00831 V
Digital Cellular System (ADC) , the Pacific Digital Cellular System (PDC) and the Global Mobile Telephone System (GSM).
The independent relation between the modules implies that these, apart from being capable to operate instantaneously on different 5 frequencies, also are capable to operate according to different modulation schemes.
Consequently, all the modules can operate in TDMA, FD^ or CDMA together, each or mutually in another arbitrary combination. The invention is thus not limited to be able to operate according to 10 one and the same modulation scheme.
